There are many vendors on Alibaba that it may make sense to buy __ from for your eBay business. Drop-shipping is a common business strategy that can net a decent profit for many online sellers, but you can also ship to a warehouse in your local market if this works for your business. However, before you go that far, launching a product successfully requires a lot of research into what people want to buy. Markets are more than just a place to sell your products. You have to understand what products are in demand, who is selling them, and how established those sellers are.
It’s entirely possible to start a profitable drop-shipping business where you source products from Alibaba and sell them on eBay. The first thing you need to do is find out what products are viable. That’s where a product research tool like Algopix comes into play.
